1. In Tech Academy, we used several web apps such as GoSoapBox.com. Answer Garden, Blogger, Google Docs, etc. Which of these web apps are you most excited about implementing in your classroom?

I really liked Kahoot! I think it would be a fun way to review a topic!!! I can see breaking my class into groups an seeing who can answer the question the fastest! I can also see myself using it as a sight word reading resource!

2. How do you see student using the web app you selected in #1 to enhance your curriculum?

It would be great to have those high students create quizzes for the class! It would make them use a higher level of blooms and they would be making something that would be useful for me and the other students. Many of them would have fun "playing teacher" by making quizzes for their parents at home too!

3. What level(s) of Bloom's Digital Taxonomy can be reached using this tool? Why? How?

I think that create could be reached-especially for the ones creating the quizzes! It would be a good way for them to think out multiple solutions to answers and ways that other students may mess up-much like a teacher does! This would also allow them to use different strategies to solve problems-especially in math!

I am really excited about using Google Docs to help me as a teacher. Today we found a form that will allow us to create a batch of QR codes. That will save so much time! Thanks Tammy Tang! I am also excited about using Educreations with my students. I used it in my classroom last year, but not to its full potential! I am looking forward to creating videos for a flipped classroom. I expect my students to be able to also use Educreations to create their own videos that can be applied to the Create level in Bloom's.

1. My favorite app that I learned about is Powtoon.com. I can see myself using it for a meet the teacher or open house presentation to my parents. I also loved learning that our computers have a recording device through the Smart Board. The last thing I am very excited about using is the reflector thing through the ipad and computer.

2. I see myself using Powtoons more than the kids just because they are so young and it might be too difficult for them to use, but I did use the Little Bird Tales app for my tech infused lesson and I can see them using that for ELA mostly for retell and fluency.

3. For Little Bird Tales the Blooms levels are Understanding and Creating. Understanding because the students are proving they remember and comprehend what happened in the story. Creating because they are creating drawings for each part of the story, reading and recording their own sentences explaining what happened in the story and letting other students listen to their recording.

1. There were many great web apps that we used this week. There were several that I believe will help me to having a successful classroom. I will continue to use Blogger as a way to keep my parents informed about what is happening inside my classroom. Also, Kahoot was great to learn about because we can create a quiz for our kids and at the end of it know exactly who knows what they are learning and who needs more reinforcement.
2. I think Blogger will be beneficial for the students because it will enhance what we are learning in the classroom. Kahoot it great for the kids to be able to take a quiz and see automatically what they need to work on.
2. With Blogger the kids can reach all the way up to the level of creating. If they are able to have access they can either create things themselves or based of what I post they could go to other apps and create stuff. With Kahoot I believe that the students are going to be more on the level of remembering and understanding. Kahoot is more for them to quiz themselves on what they know and apply themselves more to what they don't know.

1. I am most excited about using Kahoot, because I think the students will really enjoy it. (since it's like a game.) Although, I'm also a fan of Answer Garden.
2. The App I chose to use was "Skitch." I can see my students using to Application to label diagrams in every subject. They can use it to recall information, or even enhance their own presentations.
3. I think "Skitch" can be used on two different levels: Remembering and Creating.

1. There were so many web apps that we used and learned about this week. There were a lot of apps that I really enjoyed, but if I had to choose one that I'm most excited about to use in my classroom, it would have to be Kahoot.

2. I think Kahoot is a great way for the students to show what they learned, and it makes it a game for them. They can see a quiz as something fun to do and it is entertaining. Instead of doing weekly quizzes with paper and pencil, I could use Kahoot and see the answers and have grades right away! I will use Kahoot for weekly quizzes and for review before a quiz. I could also use it as a pre-test, just to see what they know before we start a new unit.

3. The level of Bloom's Digital Taxonomy that is being used with Kahoot is remembering and understanding. The students are showing what they remember and understand with the click of a button!

I am most excited about educreations and fotobabble. I think that educreations will be a great supplemental source to teach and introduce concepts. Students can watch the videos at home and we can also watch them together during snack time. Students love to take pictures with the iPad, and fotoabble will be a great way to incorporate speech in this activity. We really struggle with oral language and verbal expression in bilingual Pre-k and this is another medium that is interesting and interactive that will engage the students. Remembering, understanding, applying can be used with this app. In my lesson for the tech Academy the students learned about shapes and then had to remember what a shape was, show understanding by finding them and applying by recognizes shapes in different sizes and angles.
